What are the features of the NAB Gold banking account?

Compare NAB’s premier transaction account with what you get from other Australian banks to help you find an account that best suits your banking needs:

Monthly account keeping fees. NAB does not charge a monthly fee for this account.

Minimum account balance. You are not required to maintain a minimum account balance.

Accessibility. You have the option of using online and phone banking, EFTPOS, Bank@Post, chequebook and branch banking with this account. It’s also linked to a Gold Visa debit card, which is used to make point-of-sale, online and phone purchases as well as cash withdrawals.

ATM network. You can use your debit card to make unlimited withdrawals at NAB and rediATMs across Australia. NAB does not charge you for using ATMs outside of this network, but you may be charged fees by the institution that owns the ATM.

Overseas withdrawals. The Gold Visa debit card can be used at ATMs overseas, but you will be charged $5 per withdrawal and $1 for a balance enquiry. A fee of 3% of the Australian dollar amount is also charged if your transaction is made in a foreign currency. All of these fees are waived when this account is included as a part of the NAB Private Tailored Package.

Visa payWave. Your Gold Visa debit card has Visa payWave, allowing you to make purchases of under $100 at a terminal without swiping your card or signing your name.

Overdraft. You have the option of adding a personal overdraft to the account, if you qualify.

Availability. NAB Private Wealth clients with a Private Tailored Package are eligible to open the Gold Banking everyday account.

How do I apply for the NAB Gold Banking transaction account?

Private Wealth clients who wish to open a NAB Gold Banking transaction account can either contact their NAB banker or visit a branch. If you are not already a Private Wealth client, you will need to meet one of the following conditions in order to qualify:

Banking products. You’ll need a combined amount of at least $500,000 invested in one or more NAB banking products.

Income. An annual gross income of at least $250,000 for individuals or $350,000 for a family.

Assets. $1 million in assets for personal investment.

Once you have become a Private Wealth customer, you’ll need the following documentation when opening the Gold Banking transaction account:

Tax file number. Providing NAB with your tax file number (TFN) or TFN exemption code will ensure that you are not charged the highest marginal tax rate on any of your interest earning accounts.

The NAB Private Tailored Package comes with an annual fee of $750. This fee is charged when you first enter into the package and on the annual anniversary date every year thereafter. This fee gives you access to the Gold Banking transaction account as well as concessions on some lending products and interest rates.

What's changed about this account?

This account was no longer available for new applications from 23 April 2012. From 10 August 2012, NAB Choice Package customer could not ask for their NAB Gold Banking account to be included as part of their home loan package. However, these changes do not apply to NAB Private Tailored Package customers.

How do the overseas ATM work?

From 10 August 2012, overseas fees apply to standalone NAB Gold Banking accounts including accounts that are linked to the NAB Choice Package. Overseas ATM fees will not apply to NAB Gold Banking accounts that are linked tot he NAB Private Tailored Package.

I would have overseas travel insurance when I buy airfares with gold visa debit card. How about if I would buy all holidays, included accommodation and so on?

Is the gold card open to U18 who travel internationally?

This product is no longer offered on its own. It is bundled with a NAB home loan offer.

With no bank fee options available (ie; PC banking) why would you remain in a situation to be forced into having a minimum in your account to avoid banking fees? Is it because you don’t like the restriction of online banking only? or is there another reason that I don’t see?

The trade-off here is a host of features. And the minimum balance or $10 criteria is a pretty obvious way to pay (although I don’t actually know to what extent NAB makes a profit or loss on this offer) for these extra features.

As a NAB gold Banking Visa debit card holder, I have informed the bank of a series of fraudulent transactions using my debit card overseas
( France & Spain) over past 2 weeks. Do I have any liability for these charges which total over $2000?
NB We have not been away from Australia for 4 years.

Please note that we are finder.com.au, a financial comparison and information website, not NAB. As such, we can’t speak in behalf of NAB regarding the fraudulent transaction in your account.

However, your NAB Gold Banking comes with a NAB Defence security feature which gives you the following benefits in case of fraud:

- NAB will check and monitor your high-risk transactions.
- NAB will inform you about suspected fraud and investigate it for you.
- NAB will reimburse you of any amount taken from your account if, despite NAB’s best defences, you are still a victim of fraud.

To learn more about these benefits, please get in touch with NAB directly.

Important information about this website

finder.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We compare from a wide set of major banks, insurers and product issuers.

finder.com.au has access to track details from the product issuers listed on our sites. Although we provide information on the products offered by a wide range of issuers, we don't cover every available product. You should consider whether the products featured on our site are appropriate for your needs and seek independent advice if you have any questions.

The identification of a group of products, as 'Top' or 'Best' is a reflection of user preferences based on current website data. On a regular basis, analytics drive the creation of a list of popular products. Where these products are grouped, they appear in no particular order.

Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment.

We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.

Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labelling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.

Providing or obtaining an estimated insurance quote through us does not guarantee you can get the insurance. Acceptance by insurance companies is based on things like occupation, health and lifestyle. By providing you with the ability to apply for a credit card or loan we are not guaranteeing that your application will be approved. Your application for credit products is subject to the Provider's terms and conditions as well as their application and lending criteria.
